One can glean from the two examples above that the sample information is made available to the analyst and, with the aid of statistical methods and elements of probability,
distribution of the random variables. Analogous to the probability density function of a single continuous random variable, a joint probability density function can be dei ned
A large number of practical situations can be described by the repeated per- formance of a random experiment of the following basic nature: a sequence of trials is performed so that
Probabilities associated with binomial experiments are readily obtainable from the formula b ( x ; n, p ) of the binomial distribution or from Table A.1 when n is small. In
Although the method of transforming variables provides an effective way of finding the distribution of a function of several variables, there is an alternative and often
The point and interval estimations of the mean in Sections 9.4 and 9.5 provide good information about the unknown parameter µ of a normal distribution or a nonnormal distribution
For example, if the test is two tailed and α is set at the 0.05 level of significance and the test statistic involves, say, the standard normal distribution, then a z-value is
In an industrial example, when a sample of items selected from a batch of production is tested, the number of defective items in the sample usually can be modeled as a hypergeometric
